Coworking and managed space provider Redbrick Offices has acquired commercial properties spread over nearly 90,000 sq ft in Marol, a locality in Mumbai?s western suburb Andheri, for over Rs 2.67 billion. The company has purchased this office space, which spans three floors in the commercial complex Times Square, through its subsidiary Red Fox IT Infra LLP from the realty developer Ajmera Group entity NTPL Developers. The transactions for a total of 22 offices across the three floors of the tower were registered on May 3 and May 8, with the company paying a stamp duty of over Rs 8 crore for these registrations, according to documents accessed through the realty data analytics firm CRE Matrix. Redbrick's portfolio includes managed commercial properties across Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, and Hyderabad, covering a combined area of over 3.5 million sq ft. The company is planning to expand its portfolio to over 5 million sq feet in 2024 and 2025. Redbrick manages assets worth Rs 5,000 crore and is also a landlord in many of its managed properties, owning a portfolio worth over Rs 10 billion. In Mumbai, Redbrick manages offices spread over 1 million sq ft in key locations such as Bandra-Kurla Complex, Lower Parel, Andheri, Powai, Goregaon, and Vikhroli. The Indian office property market has shown robust performance, driven by a resurgence in economic activity and an increase in corporate occupancies in the first half of the year. This reflects the sector's resilience and the overall positive business environment. Over the past two years, there has been a significant rise in coworking and managed workspaces in the country, driven by the increasing demand for flexible and scalable office solutions. This trend has been accelerated by the shift in work culture due to the pandemic, with many businesses adopting hybrid and remote work models, leading companies to seek cost-effective and agile workspace solutions to adapt to the fluctuating economic environment.
